In their infinite wisdom, the United States' Founders created the Electoral College to ensure the STATES were fairly represented. Why should one or two densely populated areas speak for the whole of the nation?

The following list of statistics has been making the rounds on the Internet. It should finally put an end to the argument as to why the Electoral College makes sense.

Do share this. It needs to be widely known and understood.

There are 3,141 counties in the United States.

Trump won 3,084 of them.

Clinton won 57.

There are 62 counties in New York State.

Trump won 46 of them.

Clinton won 16.

Clinton won the popular vote by approx. 1.5 million votes.

In the 5 counties that encompass NYC, (Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Richmond & Queens) Clinton received well over 2 million more votes than Trump. (Clinton only won 4 of these counties; Trump won Richmond)

Therefore these 5 counties alone, more than accounted for Clinton winning the popular vote of the entire country.

These 5 counties comprise 319 square miles.

The United States is comprised of 3,797,000 square miles.

When you have a country that encompasses almost 4 million square miles of territory, it would be ludicrous to even suggest that the vote of those who inhabit a mere 319 square miles should dictate the outcome of a national election.

Large, densely populated Democrat cities (NYC, Chicago, LA, etc.) DO NOT and SHOULD NOT speak for the rest of our country!

And...it's been verified and documented that those aforementioned

ned 319 square miles are where the majority of our nation's problems foment.

Former Secretary of
State Henry Kissinger said in an interview Sunday that President-elect Donald
Trump could go down in history as a "very considerable president."

The former Secretary
of State Henry Kissinger gives us a new understanding of President Donald
Trump’s foreign policy and predicts its success: “Liberals and
all those who favor (Hillary) Clinton will never admit it. They will never
admit that he is the one true leader. The man is doing changes like never
before and does all of it for the sake of this nation’s people.
After eight years of tyranny, we finally see a difference.”

Kissinger knows it and
he continues with:“Every country now has to
consider two things: One, their perception that the previous president, or the
outgoing president, basically withdrew America from international politics, so
that they had to make their own assessments of their necessities. And secondly,
that there is a new president who’s asking a lot of unfamiliar questions. And
because of the combination of the partial vacuum and the new questions, one
could imagine that something remarkable and new emerges out of it.”

Then Kissinger puts it
bluntly: “Trump puts America and its
people first. This is why people love him and this is why he will remain in
charge for so long. There is not a single thing wrong with him and people need
to open their eyes.” When he boasts that he has a “bigger red button”
than Kim Jung Un does, he so transcends the mealy-mouthed rhetoric of the past,
thereby forcing a new recognition of American power.

Trump
is discarding the inhibitions and calling the bluff on North Korea’s
effrontery:His point is that the
contrast of American retreat under Obama and its new assertion of power under
Trump creates a new dynamic that every one of our allies and of our enemies
must consider. Our allies grew complaisant with Obama’s passivity and now
are fearful due to Trump’s activism. And they must balance the two in
developing their policies:They realize that the old
assumptions, catalyzed by Bush 43’s preoccupation with Iraq and Obama’s refusal
to lead are obsolete. So, Trump is forcing a new calculus with a new
power behind American interests. Those — here and abroad — who rode the
old apple cart worry about its being toppled.

But, as Kissinger so
boldly stated:“Trump is the one true leader in world affairs
and he is forcing policy changes that put America first! ”

This is the most accurate statement of what the American
Citizens who live outside of the swamp want and expect from their
government.

Before Obama left office, he arranged with the State Department for aseries of “official visits” to foreign countries, spanning the next 20years.

Using discretionary funds from the Office of Presidential Visits and Vacations,Obama was able to weasel what would have been another $2.1 billion infree vacations for him and up to 24 members of his family plus staffand a dog sitter until the year 2036.

He would have, that is, had he not lost his office to Donald Trump.

Trump, who is always looking for ways to save money, was having theoffice used for vacations repainted when he was presented with aledger that contained all of the Obama travel plans and expenses.

The ledger was found by one of the workers Trump hired from outsidethe typical White House staff to make alterations.

Trump immediately canceled the plans and recalled all Secret Serviceagents scheduled to protect the Obamas anywhere outside of the UnitedStates

The Obamas are also facing another new challenge at the hands of Trump.

They’re going to have to repay the government for all of thosevacations that weren’t official state business.

The bill, after some small allowances, for days that were possiblywork related, is for $214 million.

Of the 692 days the Obamas spent on vacation, almost none included anywork at all. They ate, slept and golfed and Michelle was givenshopping allowances from the Office of Discretionary Gifting Funds,which is supposed to be used to buy presents for visiting dignitaries.

No matter which political affiliation you have, this is truly funny.The good news is she is getting press time. Hopefully the people of NYC will realize what they elected to Congress.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Daylight Savings Time:

"If we change our times with the sole intent of increasing the amount of daylight we receive, that’s an extra hour of sun shine that will warm the planet. That’s one extra hour per day of extra heat warming our already unstable planet. We need to repeal Daylight Savings Time as a primary measure to decrease the rate of climate change. Less hours of sun shine equal less heat hitting Earth’s surface. We’re running out of time!"

And we are paying this woman around $170,000 plus benefits, and a pension for life. Unbelievable!!!
